Learn how to use business resources effectively for improved productivity and collaboration

Use infrastructure as code practices to build large-scale cloud infrastructure

Leverage the ultimate open source DevOps tools to achieve continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD)

Description

In the implementation of DevOps processes, the choice of tools is crucial to the sustainability of projects and collaboration between developers and ops. This book presents the different patterns and tools for provisioning and configuring an infrastructure in the cloud, covering mostly open source tools with a large community contribution, such as Terraform, Ansible, and Packer, which are assets for automation. This DevOps book will show you how to containerize your applications with Docker and Kubernetes and walk you through the construction of DevOps pipelines in Jenkins as well as Azure pipelines before covering the tools and importance of testing. You'll find a complete chapter on DevOps practices and tooling for open source projects before getting to grips with security integration in DevOps using Inspec, Hashicorp Vault, and Azure Secure DevOps kit. You'll also learn about the reduction of downtime with blue-green deployment and feature flags techniques before finally covering common DevOps best practices for all your projects. By the end of this book, you'll have built a solid foundation in DevOps and developed the skills necessary to enhance a traditional software delivery process using modern software delivery tools and techniques.

If you have ever thought of learning about DevOps, how to create a DevOps cultural mindset and how to implement the IT infrastructure you need. This is the book for you. Also, if you want to learn about MLOps, this is a great starting point. Kudos Mikael for a great second edition to the book.

This book is worth a read for any beginner who plan on using Azure to deploy their web applications. Through it, you will learn a lot of basic things such as using Git but also get a good introduction to some more advanced DevOps topics and tools. I particularly liked the fact that this book closes the "DevOps feedback loop" by showing you practical ways to test your code such that you can build and run a CI/CD pipeline with minimal downtime

I've had the chance to take a look to the book for a couple of weeks and I must say I have really enjoyed it and have learnt a lot. It is a really good book, not only for people on DevOps, but also for people working on Data Science and MLOps, who want to get an insight into the whole Deployment chain (and more!).It is fairly comprehensive and covers all sides of the process, from setting the infrastructures, to creating and managing the CI/CD Pipelines, to testing performance and security. It emphasizes the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) culture and provides not only good examples and a very direct and practical approach, but also a lot of info about good practices.Most likely, people with experience in DevOps will surely already be familiar with many of the techniques and tools detailed in the book, since all the basics are covered, but the fact of also reviewing case studies and the idea of having all that detailed information together in one book (more than 500 pages) makes it very interesting not only for beginners but also as a reference book.

OverviewRecently, I was contacted by Packt Publishing to do a review for a new book called Learning DevOps. Learning DevOps is a rather comprehensive book (it's over 500 pages!) on DevOps culture and practice. Most everything that an engineer might want to know about DevOps is at least touched on here. The book starts with the basics of providing a definitional understanding of DevOps concepts, and eventually moves on to cover application of DevOps through specific tools that are commonly used day to day.First ImpressionsInitially, I found the book to be very thorough in its explanation of what DevOps is. Often I think people are confused about DevOps because in many organizations is a title held by an engineer with a certain set of responsibilities. But this isn't really what DevOps is. It's not so much a specific job description as it is a culture. Oftentimes people within an organization may be called DevOps Engineers, while the organization is not exactly following DevOps principles at all.While explanations are thorough, there are at times places that the terminology used can be confusing. One such example is in the discussion about Continuous Delivery where tools like Nexus and ProGet are referred to as package managers. Usually, a package manager would be something like apt or npm, which manages local installation of packages for a specific platform, where I would consider something like Nexus or ProGet to be referred to as package repositories or artifact repositories.ContentI found section one mostly to be documentation on setting up the basic tools of the DevOps practitioner, such as Ansible and Terraform. While it may be helpful for the absolute beginner, I found it to be a bit verbose at times, and incorporating a lot of things that could easily be looked up in the tool's own documentation.Section two I found to be useful for those who haven't used version control in the past. Of course, this goes again with the theme of the absolute beginner. Section three was similar in that it was a rather brief overview of what I think is one of the most important topics for the modern DevOps practitioner. Kubernetes is being used by more and more companies now, and more depth on this section could have been interesting. Still, it was a good introduction.Section four was actually quite interesting. Using Postman and Newman for testing APIs was a rather novel but useful idea. I was also really impressed that the author covered application security and incorporating that into DevOps. I think this is still an idea that hasn't spread as much as it should. DevSecOps really should be the future for software companies as more regularly we see security flaws and breaches in the wild. The final section of the book expanded even further on security and that was nice to see. This was really the best part of the book for me and nice to see in an introductory text.SummaryOverall I thought that Learning DevOps was a clear introduction to DevOps and the tools of the trade, though at times it could be verbose. I would certainly recommend the book to anyone who is being thrown into a position where they need to get up to speed on DevOps quickly. It provides all the basics in one place and can act as a useful reference.
